The project activity consists of setting up of Wind Turbine Generator (WTGs) of a total capacity of 8 MW (2.00 MW x 4 nos.) in the state of Tamil Nadu, India by M/s Amarjothi Spinning Mills Limited. All the WTGs are manufactured by M/s. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Power Private Limited. The project activity generates power by using the kinetic energy of wind, thus resulting in zero emissions during electricity production. The purpose of the project activity is to supply emission free energy generated by the WTGs to the Tamilnadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Ltd. (TANGEDCO). The power produced would displace an equivalent amount of power from the grid connected power stations, which are mainly fossil fuel fired power plants. Hence, it results in reduction of GHG emissions in electricity generation.

The project will replace anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG’s) estimated to be approximately 16,302tCO₂e per year, thereon displacing estimated average of 17,520MWh/year amount of electricity from the generation-mix of power plants connected to the Indian grid, which is mainly dominated by thermal/fossil fuel-based power plant. Project activity will mitigate the total GHG emission reductions of 1,63,024tCO₂e over the total crediting period
